Liked: Very nice hostel. Large kitchen area. Cool bar on the top floor with terrace. Centrally located.

Disliked: Showers were a little old, not dirty per se, but could use a little TLC. Not enough electrical outlets in the room (maybe just add power bars) No open common area passed 1pm, though understandable for the kitchen since there are rooms on that floor.

The property's response is...

Hi!
Thanks for your comment! We are trying to improve our facilities, so thanks for the recomendation. Thanks for booking with us.
Best regards,

Liked: It´s a pretty young hostel - the employees and the guest as well! There is a common kitchen for everyone, the location is in the middle of the centre in a beautiful house (as the city itself). There is also a bar with PCs, a pool billiard and a TV and a rooftop terrace. You meet always pretty cool people there. Our double bedroom was perfect. Around the hostel were many restaurants, some bars and shopping places. The location and infrastructure is perfect. It´s clean in relation to the mass of guests. The place to be is definitely the beach! And the offered pub crawls should be joined.

Disliked: It´s noisy, but this is the backpacking lifestyle. The beach is bit far away from the city (and the hostel).

The property's response is...

Hello!
Thank you Bastian for your kind words! We are happy to hear that you liked our hostel!
Our recepsionists job is also to keep the silence in the corridors, especially in the night time so that everybody can get a good sleep.
We are definitely going to pay more attention to that from now on. Thank you for mentioning that! :)
Since we are in the city center the beach is not next to us, but you can get there very easily with bus or with metro in 20 minutes.
Lots of greetings!

Liked: Rooftop is good, and airline room is ok. It did have aircon.

Disliked: Bunks are so.bad I had to remove the mattress and sleep on the floor. We recognised it as the hostel of rules. We even expected a rule on wiping your ass. No alcohol from outside and no bar until 6, then they never had anything in stock. A massive wait to get served even if there was no que.

Liked: The Room was very spacious and the staff was very friendly. They even wanted to print out our airline tickets

Disliked: The smell at the common bathroom was not very nice,

The property's response is...

Hello! Thank you for your comment!
As the drain tubes in Valencia are quite antique, they sometimes might cause some smell including on the streets. As its something structural it is difficult to delete totally. Anyway, we have put some room fragrances in the bathrooms to eliminate the smell. Also our cleaning department is taking a good care of our hostel so that all our guests feel comfortable when they are staying with us.
Sunny greetings from Valencia,
Red Nest Staff

Liked: The location was absolutely perfect, as it was literally a 5 minute walk from Plaza de la Reina. The staff went above and beyond to help us, even calling a taxi for us on one of their cell phones when the hostel phone wouldn't work. It was a very cool hostel with clean rooms and lots of activities for young people. It was one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in! I've already recommended it to other friends traveling around Spain.

Disliked: Nothing at all!

Liked: The kitchen was well-equipped. It was clean for the most part. The location is pretty good, though not perfect. There is a nice rooftop terrace, though it seemed to get underused while I was there. The staff was helpful for the most part as well.

Disliked: The bar is way too expensive, especially considering they have a rule saying you can't bring your own alcohol. The atmosphere while I was staying there was a bit odd--maybe just the wrong people, but it seemed like not many people were hanging out at the bar or anything. Not their fault, but wish it was closer to the beach. Bathrooms seemed to be getting old and falling apart.

The property's response is...

Hello Sanders,
Thank you for your comment! We are sorry to hear that for some parts you were not happy with our hostel. We try to keep the bar prices down, because we know that many travellers want to travel with a low budget. During the last month we have made some renovations to the bathrooms so that they would meet the needs of everybody.
We hope to welcome you to our hostel another time!
Kind regards,
Nest Staff

Liked: Actually we stayed at the Purple Nest! They send us to this other hostel because of refurbishments in the other one. The great people staying there! And they have a very big kitchen with everything you need to cook your own meal!

Disliked: We booked a room for four people but we stayed in a room for 8. Was okay, but when we tried to solve the problem at the reception they weren´t so helpful. The kitchen closes at 11pm but they start cleaning at 22pm, so you can not use it anymore.

Liked: There are 2 lots of common rooms to chill in, a roof terrace to smoke so you don't have to go out on the street. A terrace in the room. Kitchen is good to have specially when wanting to travel on a budget. Great location. A few minutes walk from the direct train line from the airport. Staff so helpful. Bathrooms clean.

Disliked: The only thing I didn't know how to turn on the lights in the bathroom. When I had an early flight I had to leave at 4 in the morning And none of the lights where on. Maybe have some curtains across the beds just for Bit more extra privacy.
